In the 2003 general election , Gibson ran in the constituency of Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross , but clearly missed the direct mandate. Since he was also set on the regional electoral list of the electoral region Highlands and Islands , Gibson received as a result of the election result one of seven list mandates of the electoral region and moved into the Scottish Parliament . In 2007, Gibson lost again to Jamie Stone in the constituency of Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross, despite clear gains in the vote, but defended his mandate for the electoral region.
